Hey, I had Suse for a while and it came with c: or my computer link from windows right on the desktop... I have switched over to Mandrake 9.1 powerpack and it doesn't appear anywhere! - so my main question is.. how do I get to it? or if i can type an address in the address bar to go into it??
If you can help that would be great!
Thanks

check in /etc/fstab to see if you have a /mnt/windows or anything with Win or windows in the name. If you dont. You'll have to check with whatever your partition viewing software is, find out what drive windows is on... (/dev/hda1? hda2? hda6? hda7?) and add an appropriate line to your /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab files so you can mount it up Suse was just being a lot more user friendly in setting it up for you.
Thankyou to both of you for even replying to my thread
Caeda - it worked, everything was their and the way it should be so I just wanted to say thank you to both of you for replying and helping me figure it out!
